Get into my backline you big hunk of man meat
I reckon he and Ridley are going to form a great team down back
6 years is insanity though

I don’t know, the last guy we brought in on a big 6 year deal was Shiel, and that worked out well…

If you’re reading this Ben. Shave the rest of that hair off and Mick Martyn this ■■■■■.
Dont spoil my fun with technicalities
Looking forward to the club website video, and the recruiters referring to him as “a big lump of a lad”
I remember a lot of blitzers criticising dodo for not having taken one of the McKay boys.
Now we get one for free.
Welcome young man to a quality team. Looking forward to seeing you scrag, block, punch, mark with the red sash on

6 year deals is the new 4 year deals.
Hopefully it’s heavily front loaded. But Shiel staying may have limited our ability to do that
Obvious need.
Will grow under Scott.
Now he needs to build a partnership with his mate Ridley and the infectious Baldwin.
I think a back six with Ridley McKay, Ridley t McGrath, Redman and Dursma could be as good as any going round.
I see massive upside with Baldwin & McKay.
Premierships are built from defence.

I’m happy with McKay and I think that we need a big body defender like him, but on what planet is he worth pick 3?
Free agency is a farce. All that trade period should involve is the trading of players and draft picks between clubs.

He’s worth pick three because we decided to make him one of the 2-3 highest paid players on our list. If we were paying him what he’s worth, north would have got compensated for what he’s worth.

I would guess the plan wasn’t to pay him so much. But the Hawks came late with the stupidly high offer which forced our hand

This is the best Ben since Ben Doolan.

We needed a big back pillar, Ben is it. Go have fun torturing forwards with your mate Ridley and Andy Mcgrath nipping at your heels. Pick 3 is ludicrous but hey…. it’s the AFL
Roos supporter at work is stoked. Said he had one good game this season and it was against us.
Get around him though now I guess
Are we doing a full list overtake of North?

Its just a thinly veiled opportunity for the AFL to prop up the ■■■■ clubs.
